If you’ve ever been to the Indy Mile you might have noticed a pea-gravel half-mile track inside the Mile oval. This photo was taken from a race on the Indy Half-Mile track during the AMA Grand Championship amateur nationals in 2000. This is, I believe, Jared Mees (1SE) leading over Nick Cummings (69), Cory McDermitt (54) and Jake Johnson (1NE). This shot was taken with with of the early Sony Mavica digital camera that saved the image on a 3 ½ inch floppy disc that held 1.44 MB of data. Today that disc wouldn’t even hold a single shot from modern digital cameras, but back then the Sony was cool stuff.
